Export compliance (encryption)

Apple may require an "Export Compliance" statement upload when submitting to the Mac App Store.

This folder contains:

• EXPORT_COMPLIANCE.txt: a template statement (fill-in placeholders)
• make_pdf.sh: a helper to fill the template and generate a PDF you can upload

Generate the PDF

From the repo root:

./build_tools/macos/export_compliance/make_pdf.sh \
  --bundle-id com.dryark.strawberry \
  --version 1.2.3 \
  --developer "Dry Ark LLC" \
  --contact "support@example.com"

Outputs:

• build_tools/macos/export_compliance/EXPORT_COMPLIANCE.filled.txt
• build_tools/macos/export_compliance/EXPORT_COMPLIANCE.pdf

Important

This template assumes the app uses only standard OS-provided encryption (e.g. TLS/HTTPS via system frameworks) and does not ship proprietary or standalone crypto libraries.

If you bundle your own crypto library (e.g. OpenSSL) or implement custom encryption, you likely need different answers/documentation.
